Oxyntomodulin is a peptide hormone produced by the cells of small intestine during food consumption and responsible for the sense of satiation owing to its effect on the hypothalamic nuclei. The physiological role of oxyntomodulin is to decrease appetite for homeostatic weight regulation. Being an innate human protein oxyntomodulin produces minimum side effects in contrast to known drugs for obesity. Oxyntomodulin Porcine Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 37 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 4420.86 Dalton. The OXM is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. This protein is from Suidae gray.
